Lighting related pet hates?

[FrontSideBus]

Really pisses me off when people refer to lamps as "light bulbs".... they are lamps, not bulbs!
Anybody get any others?

Starter motors lol, I always laugh I even saw a job sheet in our office once where one of the young recently qualified had written starter motors on the job sheet FFS

Outages plain & simple..

70watt TD halide downlighters full of shattered glass!

Mixed fluorescent colours always seems to get to me also Extra points if it's in the same fitting too!

Fluorescent lights being called strip lights

[eclipsislamps]

People who think a rat died and call someone to sort it when it turns out to be a fluorescent left with a stuck starter roasting.

Faulty lighting and linear halogens in linear halide fittings plus others like GLS/CFL in SON/SOX fittings etc.

When people list something as 'vintage' when its not even 5 years old. that really drives me insane.
